Rebeca Ramirez is thrilled to be joining the team at HVSF this year! She has been everything from a theater director and dancer to an arts administrator, small business owner, and advocate for equitable economic development. Prior to opening Cold Spring Cheese, a specialty cheese shop in the Hudson Valley region with her husband, she spearheaded marketing and sponsorship at a variety of business improvement districts. She led commercial revitalization efforts for the award-winning non-profit cultural partnership of Brooklyn’s central institutions including Brooklyn Museum, Brooklyn Botanic Garden, Brooklyn Children’s Museum, and others. With her husband Timothy Haskell, she cofounded Nightmare NYC’s Premier Haunted House, pioneering the movement for haunted houses in New York City. In her spare time, Ms. Ramirez enjoys herself a good meeting or a hike! She is the proud Co-Chair of the Philipstown Trails Committee.
